"Q: Which of the following statements comes closest to your point of view of pending proposal;s to establish a guest worker program in the U.S.?"

"OpitionA: A federal guest worker plan that legalizes the millions of illegal immigrants now in th U.S. and puts them on the path to full citizenship should be enacted... 10% Agree"

then if the numbers aren't enough bull shit, it says, "PERCENTAGES ARE BASED ON A REPRESENTATIVE SAMPLE OF RESPONSES." what the hell does that mean, did they doctor the polls to show something that wasn't? "o, well these people didn't like any of our proposals, take them out and just add that phrase at the bottom..."
